Someone assassinated the Empress Dowager, but did not kill her, only with fire. The gun extinguished the master guards around her, and set the body on fire. Feng Ziying wanted to use dogs to track, but several dogs were in place for a long time and didn't smell anything; I searched the entire palace courtyard and found not a single bullet casing. The corpses burned by the assassins were unrecognizable, so they had to ask who the Empress Dowager was. Everyone is dead, and the Empress Dowager can't hide it, so she said all the list of fifteen and ten. It's just that she never mentioned the Ouchi Yanagi family. She thought that since she was loyal and good, she left because of her grievances, and she would come back when she heard that her master was in danger.

Feng Ziying checked for a long time, and after lunch, she left the palace gate and went straight to Lixiang Courtyard. Jia Cong just choked Jia Zheng and came back, refreshed and comfortable, shaking his head and singing "Little Apple". Feng Ziying stepped in the door and couldn't help but rush him out.

Jia Cong stood up and prepared to change his clothes, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Feng Ziying said with a smile: "You'll know when you go." Jia Cong then changed into a new crab shell Qingliuyun bat light robe, with a forehead on his head. Feng Ziying smiled secretly in his heart-did he still think he was going to visit the flower building.

After packing up, Jia Cong followed Feng Ziying out and shouted casually: "I'm leaving." ”

Chen Ruijin suddenly fell in love with embroidery recently, sitting under the porch holding a bandage and comparing patterns, without raising his head "um".

Feng Ziying recognized Chen Ruijin and only thought she was a maid; Now this dress is no longer a maid's. When he got out of the pear incense courtyard and got on the horse, he asked with a smile: "Put it away. Do you want the girl to enter the room? Can you set a date? ”

"Nope." Jia Cong turned over and got on the horse, "I'm going to marry her as a daughter-in-law, she hasn't planned to marry me so soon." Brother Huan's honeymoon is not over yet. If I rush to get married like a chicken, won't I look like a pervert? ”

…… The point is simply not right! Feng Ziying frowned: "You wait." She's a maid. I know that you love Hulai, and you can't be presumptuous in marriage matters. ”

Jia Cong smiled: "She is not a maid, even if she is a maid, it is not a big deal." There are a lot of misunderstandings here, so I'll talk to you about it later. ”

Feng Ziying didn't have time to teach him about marrying a daughter-in-law, so she nodded and went straight to the gate of the Forbidden City. Jia Cong was stunned: "Brother Feng, what are you playing?" ”

Feng Ziying said: "The Empress Dowager was assassinated last night. ”

"Huh?"

"The assassin didn't kill her, only her guards, and left a strange note." Feng Ziying said, "Look at it." ”

Jia Cong pursed his lips and said, "You still pull me to eat wine." Feng Ziying looked at his clothes and laughed.

Jia Cong has also visited the Palace Museum in his previous life, and has visited three or four times, but it is the first time in his life to enter the palace, and it is inevitable to look curiously. Feng Ziying urged on the side: "Go back and walk slowly." Jia Cong shrugged.

The two walked around the scene, and Feng Ziying explained in detail. Jia Cong listened with a little thought, and said, "That Xue Tao note can be thrown away." Feng Ziying was stunned. He immediately said, "Oh, don't throw it! You can also find out where you bought it. Also, let me warn you first, the assassins may not be able to catch them. ”

Feng Ziying glanced at him: "What do you know?" What's going on with that prince? ”

Jia Cong said: "Bullshit prince! There is no such person. Nai stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky, "This is the Forbidden City." He pointed to the Empress Dowager's house, "There lives the Empress Dowager, the most powerful woman in the harem." Harem, cannibalism does not spit out bones. It was a "snap" high-five, "What else can tear away the attention of the case handler more than the secret of the palace?" ”

Feng Ziying was just frightened by the words on Xue Tao's note before, and suddenly understood when she heard the words: "That's nonsense." ”

Jia Cong crooked the corners of his mouth: "If it was the 'prince' who was looking for the Empress Dowager's revenge, why did he kill her guards alone and not kill her?" Is it easy to get inside the palace? ”

Feng Ziying immediately said: "That's right." How did they get in? ”

Jia Cong shrugged: "It may be that how you went out in the past and how you come in now." I can't keep it all together, and people don't come in or go out at all. ”

Feng Ziying gasped, and suddenly thought of many possibilities, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. After a long time, he slowly said to the deputy who followed beside him: "Search everyone in the Forbidden City." The deputy took the order and left.

Jia Congdao asked, "Can anyone leave the palace after the incident last night?" Has the news gotten out? Have you ever sent something out? ”

"No one is out of the palace. Because the Empress Dowager is unhindered, she can't hide the fire last night, and there is already gossip on the street. ”

"That's a bit of a headache." Jia Cong said, "Let everyone shut up and don't leak half a word." When I went out again, I only said that the small utility yard next to the imperial dining room had caught fire unexpectedly, and it had already been extinguished, and there was nothing to do. Check it again if there's anything to give. What a toilet bowl, leftovers, etc. Feng Ziying looked up at him. Jia Cong bared his teeth and said, "If you want to say that a few palace maids and eunuchs can get fire. Guns, I don't believe it. ”

Feng Ziying hurriedly asked someone to investigate, and said, "You just said that you might not be able to catch the assassin?" ”

Jia Cong spread his hands and said: "In case the family has already left, and the city gate has not been closed today, the sky knows where it has flown to." There are some things that you have to ask the Empress Dowager. ”

"It's easy."

Feng Ziying then led him to another palace not far away, where the Empress Dowager would move. Coincidentally, the imperial doctor came out of the old man's house for her. Feng Ziying casually asked the Empress Dowager if she was okay, and the imperial doctor said, "I just rested." Feng Ziying frowned.

Jia Cong said: "Is there any of her henchmen alive?" ”

Feng Ziying said: "Most of the dead are the inner guards, and most of the ordinary palace maids and eunuchs are not dead." Her henchman," he snorted, "isn't that Dai Quan?" ”

"Hmm. Then don't bother the Empress Dowager for now. Jia Cong said in his heart, the master doesn't want to kowtow to her." It's the same with asking Dai's father-in-law. ”

The two of them then went inside to see Dai Quan and said some words, and Jia Cong asked: "Dare to ask Father-in-law Dai, are there any ways for these guards around the Empress Dowager to avoid the Imperial Forest Army outside the palace?" ”

Dai Quan was stunned and said, "The miscellaneous family doesn't know." However, most of the Ouchi guards had a way to enter and leave the palace. ”

Jia Cong said: "Does the Empress Dowager know? ”

Dai Quan said: "Where can the miscellaneous family inquire about this." ”

Jia Cong turned his head and stretched out his hand to Feng Ziying: "Since that's it, it's about escape." ”

Dai Quan hurriedly asked, "Mr. Jia thinks that there are Ouchi guards among those assassins?" ”

"It's not that I think it's for sure." Jia Cong said, "Otherwise, what kind of corpses will they burn, and why don't they run away if they have that free time?" It's all the Royal Forest Army outside, and you can't save your life if you run one step early. ”

Dai Quan suddenly patted the case and said: "Li Daitao's plan!" ”

Jia Cong touched his nose: "It seems that the golden cicada should be called out of its shell." ”

Dai Quan didn't care about it, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Feng, that note?" ”

Feng Ziying said: "Fake, fake a shot." ”

That is the Empress Dowager has nothing to do. Dai Quan breathed a sigh of relief and frowned again: "Lord Feng, Mr. Jia, there is no Western fire in the hands of the Ouchi guards. Gun. ”

Feng Ziying said: "Someone must help them." ”

Jia Cong pinched his right hand with his left hand and said, "Let's sort it out, there must be a flaw." How many Ouchi guards did you have - it seems that the black-clad assassins were seven? Dai Quan nodded. There are more than seven Ouchi guards, well, I don't want to do it. But it's not easy to get out of this business. It is impossible to say that there is no handle in the hands of the imperial court, or that there are many enemies in the early years. If you want to walk cleanly, you have to clear the past. So they pretended to be Assassins, so they got the fire from somewhere. The gun killed his fellow bodyguards, and he also got some corpses from elsewhere to make up the numbers, and piled up the corpses of his colleagues and the corpses of the same number and burned them. They faked their deaths and escaped. Jia Cong began to snap his fingers, "The first suspicion." Fire. Where did the gun come from. Father-in-law Dai, there is a fire in the palace. Guns? ”

Dai Quan said categorically: "No." ”

"Guys from the Firearms Battalion of the Royal Guards in the early years, are you?"

Dai Quan still said: "No." ”

"This one is weird." Jia Cong held his cheeks and said, "Brother Feng, they didn't find the bullet casing. Supposedly, a shootout could not have been without this. I thought it was a fake fire. What about guns. ”

Dai Quan said: "The masters of the Great Inner are all outstanding in martial arts. If it weren't for fire. Guns, how can ordinary people kill them so quickly? ”

Jia Cong smirked: "Ordinary people naturally can't do it, but companions can." There was a group of highly skilled assassins standing opposite, and the eyes of the guards were all fixed on the assassins, where would they pay attention to their companions behind them? ”

Feng Ziying suddenly remembered: "In the morning, we found some artillery suits. ”

"That's more likely to be a fake fire. Guns. Jia Cong said, "The assassins were divided into two groups, one disguised as a man in black to lure out other guards, hiding a fake fire in his arms. guns, in fact, may be a sleeve quiver or something; A gang attacked behind to kill their companions who did not join the gang; Another artillery battle was assigned. The palace maids and eunuchs who were watching all shut down, and those who did not see them were not killed, but only blindfolded them. didn't kill the queen mother, I'm afraid it's because the lords and ministers have some friendship over the years. ”

Feng Ziying pondered: "It's reasonable. If it weren't for that, those artillery suits would be weird. ”

Jia Cong said: "It could also be fire. They have guns, but they have them, just a few or two. He clapped his hands, "The second suspicion is how to get the corpses." ”

Feng Ziying smiled bitterly: "This is easy. There are many eunuchs in the palace, and the number of heads is not clear. Kill a few people from a secluded place, I'm afraid no one knows. ”

"Oh well. I just don't know where the Assassins went. Jia Cong said, "Is it hiding in the palace waiting for an opportunity to escape, or has it already sneaked away." ”

There is a secret passage in the palace, others don't know, but Dai Quan knows. Deng Shi remembered that the young man who was guarding the house at the entrance of the tunnel a few days ago was killed. If it's a traitor, how can you not know? I couldn't help but sigh.

Jia Cong said again: "There is another strange thing: Xue Taojian. It's not that there are no notes in the palace, and Tete uses Xue Tao's notes from outside the palace to make us mistakenly think that they are people from outside? ”

Feng Ziying said: "Zhao Cheng said that last month, someone sent a secret letter to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division with Xue Tao's note, and went out to sell the stolen goods in the hidden phoenix residence. ”

Dai Quan's eyes jumped! The hermit phoenix has always been hidden in the market and no one knows, and that party is the beginning of a series of chaos behind this. The belly secretly connected everything together, and sighed dejectedly: "There is no doubt that he will collude with the outside." ”

Jia Cong looked at him twice, opened his mouth and closed it again. After a while, he held his chin and said, "There must be a reason for the good inner guards to pick their children." Who pried it away? Who would be thinking about the person who pries the Empress Dowager? If you want to pry, you have to pry it. And also clean up the past. Is this an attempt to be an official? ”

Dai Quan and Feng Ziying chuckled in their hearts at the same time: Except for the surname Situ, who would plan to pry the Empress Dowager? Dai Quan knew that the female guard Liu Mingqiu had come to the capital to pull people, which was her own calculation, and Rongguo Mansion did not know it at the time. And she's been here once. Besides, Jia Cong has been asking people to go abroad to build turf, and people who go abroad can't clean up the past. So they put their house down.

Jia Cong also said: "I have heard that the guards are extremely loyal, and are not easily tempted. Feng Ziying nodded in agreement, and said nothing--those who were not extremely loyal had already let Situ Pan pry them away, and now those who remained were extremely loyal. Jia Cong thought for a while, "Then what did they use to tempt these people?" Gold? Beauty? There is no shortage in the palace. ”

Dai Quan let out an "ahhh Most of these around the Empress Dowager are eunuchs. When the eunuch enters the palace, he must be clean, and the thing that is removed cannot be taken away until he leaves the palace. Feng Ziying immediately said: "I have something to check!" Cong'er, you play by yourself first. ”

Dai Quan hurriedly said, "I'll go with the adults." Adults may not find it. ”

Jia Cong was stunned: "Huh? Hey, Brother Feng! You can't leave me alone in the palace...... There are wolf-like women everywhere. ”

Feng Ziying smiled: "Who can still move you?" If there is anything you like, take it away. After saying that, he glanced at Dai Quan, and the two of them led some people to leave--Jia Cong was really left behind.

Jia Cong was stunned and turned around three times in place, and asked the two subordinates left by Feng Ziying: "Is there anything interesting in the palace?" Can I go and see the legendary Imperial Garden? ”

The two of them guessed what Feng Dai and the others had done. Besides, where in this palace is there like back then? said with a smile: "Jia Sanye wants to visit the Imperial Garden, and the villain will lead you there." ”

Jia Cong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Two big brothers, you are more than ten years older than me, don't shout so respectfully, the younger brother is awkward." ”

The two of them smiled and said, "I know that Jia Sanye is a Shuangli person." Then they all changed their names to Brother Jia, and really led him to the Imperial Garden.

When he arrived at the place, Jia Cong was a little lost. I didn't think it looked good! Compared with the remains of the Old Summer Palace that I visited in my previous life, it is too far away, small and stupid, and it is not even as good as the garden in King Yan's mansion, let alone King Wu's. It's just that the flowers and trees in this imperial garden are really beautifully trimmed, straight and dense, interspersed appropriately, and very interesting. Jia Cong sighed secretly in his heart: How many talents are occupied in the palace! From the imperial dining room to the gardener who prunes the flowers and trees, he is the best person in the country. He hadn't been to the palace earlier, and he only thought about the palace wall locking the spring, and it was a pity for the young women in the palace; I realized it with my own eyes, and there are even more pity. He secretly wondered if he could go with Situ Pan, the gardener in charge of the imperial garden.

Suddenly, I heard a sound of the piano coming from nowhere, and it was sent with the wind, like fairy music. Jia Cong bared his teeth: Should there be another sexual encounter! Miss Chen Ruijin, I'm very determined~~ Turning my head to look at the place where the voice came from-oh, it's not an affair. Male.
